What's better for Baertschi's development right now? Tweening on the 3/4 lines in the NHL or getting top line minutes and boats of PP time in Abbotsford? For a player who's offense has really dried up, seasoning in the AHL is the best thing for him.
If he can't handle the adversity of getting sent down he can't handle the adversity of being a top tier pro.
Bottom line.
